No one should be surprised – podcast #247

Manchester United 1 v Brighton & Hove Albion 2. Well, the new Premier League season finally started for us yesterday, but no one should be surprised with the outcome of our performance. Woeful. And that’s being kind.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m ever the optimist and always look to the future with Ten Hag the man to do it. I see a minimum two-year project and by then there should be a massive improvement from where we are currently at.

Yesterday was a reminder of how much we still have to learn and improve on because for the best part of yesterday’s game – it could have been last season.

Poor passing, poor marking and a sheer lack of awareness.

I’m not going to over react myself though. We all know we’ve got rid of plenty of bad eggs from the squad, but there are still players here that are simply not good enough. Ten Hag will soon realise that and unless he and coaches can’t improve them, then they will be have to be moved on too. That’s the positive for me. Learn from the mistakes and only then can we improve on how bad yesterday’s opening game was.
